Hello fellow campers. Purchased a new travel trailer last week. First trip for the 4 the weekend. Fresh water tank fell out at mile 105 and was drug down the interstate until fellow motorist flagged us down. Hole in the bottom skirting, many wires wore completely through, hole in water tank. None of the camper electrical works. Trailer lights seems fine. Home we went.

My question to the experienced rv crowd. What should I do? Insist on a new one, settle for repairs, be compensated for my loss of use

Return it as fast as you can. No excuse for things like that to happen. I would opt for a completely different brand by a different manufacturer.

Get a Lawyer, take it back where you bought it. Contact the State Attorney Generals Office about it.

This no small matter to be dragged through the dealership. They will likely punt with you standing empty handed. I'd consult a lawyer, notify the BBB,and lay out specifically to the dealership owner or GM a time table of what you expect to be done. Don't get exicted, don't yell. No need for that. Be calm, frank, and resolved. Do it in writing with a witness, perferrably said lawyer. I would also contact the mfg'er myself to confirm the sitation and get them up to speed also. This is no small matter and you should not be left holding any bag. Keep us posted.
